County School Bus Discipline Policy Students who fail to abide by the bus rules will be disciplined. Bus drivers have the right to suspend a student from riding the bus for a period of one day. The school administration team may suspend students for additional days. Parents will be notified of suspensions before they go into effect. The School Bus Discipline Policy is as follows: 1st Offense: Referral to the Administrative Office. Discipline at the discretion of the bus driver. The bus driver is to contact the parents/guardians of their concerns before suspending a child from the bus. 2nd Offense: Referral to the Administrative Office. Discipline at the discretion of the driver of the bus. The second offense may warrant a bus suspension. 3rd Offense: Referral to the Transportation Office. Conferences will be held with the Supervisor of Transportation, parent/guardian, and student (and driver if deemed necessary). The student will be removed from the bus until a satisfactory conference is held. At this conference, a decision will be made as to how long the student will remain off the bus. 4th Offense: Automatic 30 school days off the bus. 5th Offense: Automatic removal for the remainder of the school year. Safety Hints for School Bus Riders Students should: • Arrive at the bus stop 5 minutes before the bus is due to arrive. • Wait in a line away from traffic until the bus comes to a complete stop.
